Tract 48061010301 Eviction Risk: Moderate

Pulling hardest the other way is state political climate at 1.5/10. Well under the midpoint, local political climate reads 1.5/10.

The poverty rate is 29%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.

Severe burden reaches 17%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. 38% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Cameron County average of 42.8%. The filing record is not thin: 26 evictions over 3 years of observation.

It sits 0.8 points above the Cameron County average of 3.9. The worst year on record was 2016, when 3.2% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 2.2% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 55th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
